Abstract

Suspicion of abuse is different from other diagnoses that doctors encounter in child patients. The examination of these children is often associated with uncertainty as to the rights and obligations established by the applicable legislation in such a situation.

Specific examples describe the most common scenarios that may occur during the examination of a child suspected of abuse, and the procedure corresponding to the applicable legal regulation is given.
